Strange Affair |
This is a strange affair |
The time has come to travel but the road is filled with fear |
This is a strange affair |
My youth has all been wasted and I’m bent and gray with years |
And all my companions are taken away |
And who will provide for me against my dying day? |
I took my own provisions, but it fooled me and wasted away |
This is a strange, this is a strange affair |
Oh, where are my companions? |
My mother, father, lover, friend and enemy |
Where are my companions? |
They’re prisoners of death now and taken far from me |
And where are the dreams I dreamed in the days of my youth? |
They took me to illusion when they promised me the truth |
And what do sleepers need to make them listen |
Why do they need more proof? |
This is a strange, this is a strange affair |
Won’t you give me an answer? |
Why is your heart so hard towards the one who loves you best? |
When the man with the answer |
Has wakened you, and warned you, and called you to the test |
Wake up from your sleep that builds like clouds upon your eyes |
And win back the life you had that’s now a dream of lies |
Turn your back on yourself and if you follow |
You’ll win the lover’s prize |
This is a strange, this is a strange affair |
